The Kind of Love Nigerians Think Is Normal — But It’s Actually Dysfunction

Описание: Some of the love you're fighting to protect is not love. It's trauma bonding.

And the difference is love makes you feel safe. Trauma bonding makes you feel chosen because you survived something together.

In this video, I'm talking about what we've normalized in Nigerian relationships that's actually dysfunction:

Suffering as proof of love
Financial provision replacing emotional presence
Silence instead of communication
Tolerating disrespect because of marriage timelines
Public performance vs private emptiness
"Manage him/manage her" culture
Pride disguised as standards

This is not a gender war. This is not an attack. This is awareness.

Because some of what we learned about love came from people who were surviving, not thriving.

And it's time we talk about it honestly.
